Chapter 070: Questioning
"No matter how good the human skin mask is made in the general disguise technique, it is not the original skin after all, and there will always be a trace of flaws. And it's impossible for the human skin mask not to be taken off once for so many days. The most important thing is that it is easy to change the voice at all. Xiahou Yan continued to explain.
"The voice is not difficult to understand, there are not a few capable people on the rivers and lakes, there must be someone who is good at ventriloquism." Le Ling said lightly.
"I've thought of this too, so the most critical question is still on that face." Xiahou Yan said with some concern, "There can only be two kinds of people who can understand Jian Ning so well and imitate it without arousing suspicion, one is the person who used to know Jian Ning, and the other is the person who is with Jian Ning now." β
"And what have you found now?" Le Ling was actually not very interested, but she knew that since Xiahou Yan had said so much to her, there must be a place where she needed to be used.
"I've sent someone to investigate ways to change your face other than disguise, although nothing has come of it yet." Xiahou Yan said with a little annoyance.
"And what do you need me to help you do?" Seeing that the matter was almost over here, Le Ling asked.
"I don't need to do anything more, just keep an eye on her. She took so much effort to enter the palace, it was impossible for her to have no purpose. Xiahou Yan said lightly.
He didn't do this at all because he was thinking about Yuan Chu, but because he hoped that the woman Gu Gu could find a clue and be able to know Jian Ning's whereabouts as much as possible.
"Okay, if there is any news, I will ask Feng Zi to pass the book to Feng Yang." Le Ling nodded.
"There's one more thing I feel I need to talk to you about." After being silent for a moment, Xiahou Yan looked at Le Lingdao.
"What's the matter?"
"Father's illness is already very serious, and the imperial doctor has already said that it will only be half a year at most......" Xiahou Yan's voice was calm. There is neither sorrow nor joy.
"Oh." Le Ling just responded lightly as if he was listening to an ordinary thing, and then he didn't react.
Xiahou Yan couldn't help but be a little annoyed when he saw it, and said, "After all, he is your father, and he wants to get your forgiveness before he dies." β
Xiahou Yan saw that Le Ling was just looking at him, and still didn't have any reaction, so he continued: "Although there are many princesses in Dongshang, my father has never been close to them. Even many princesses only saw their father from afar when they got married. Do you know why? β
"It's not because my father doesn't like them. It's because the father didn't dare to get close to them. Because as long as you see them, your father will think of you, and I feel even more guilty. And the queen mother did not have another child after that. During the years when you returned to the palace. They're trying their best to make up for you, isn't that enough for you to discourage and forgive them? β
Le Ling's expression was still indifferent, and he said, "Then I want to ask how much blood belongs to them on my body now?" Sue sΓΉ you. Hardly! And even if there were, it would only make me sick. β
Leling didn't want to stay here any longer. She walked straight out, jumped lightly, and returned to the shore very lightly. At that moment, many people by the lake were stunned, the picture was so beautiful. It is reminiscent of a fairy descending to earth.
After returning to the shore, Le Ling quickly returned to the carriage regardless of the surrounding eyes. He said coldly: "Go back to the palace." β
Feng Zi was waiting by the carriage, and he didn't seem to be in a good mood when he saw the princess come back. didn't dare to ask more, so he got into the car directly and told the coachman to go back to the palace.
thought that it would be more comfortable to return to the palace, but Ke Leling never thought that trouble was already waiting for her there.
"Queen Mother, the Empress Dowager, please come over." As soon as he stepped close to Fengyi Palace, he saw Aunt Hebi walking out of it, with an indescribable smile on her face, and said after blessing Leling slightly.
Le Ling immediately frowned, but she quickly covered it up. At this time, there is really no need to tear up with the Queen Mother.
"Auntie, wait a while, let Bengong go and change clothes." Le Ling said and wanted to go inside. She knew in her heart that it would be a big deal to let Aunt Hebi wait here in person.
The mood on the ship just now has not had time to calm down, and now it is really not appropriate to go to Ningshou Palace in such a hasty situation.
"The queen mother's dress is not rude now, so don't let the queen mother wait in a hurry." Aunt Hebi's footsteps moved slightly, and she skillfully used her body to block the way that Leling wanted to enter. Said with a smile on his face.
Le Ling saw that he had already talked about this, so naturally he couldn't go if he didn't go. Immediately turned back to Feng Zi and said, "You just stay, prepare hot water for the palace, and come back to the palace to bathe in a while." β
After that, Le Ling took the lead in turning around, re-exiting Fengyi Palace, getting on the sedan chair that had been prepared, and heading towards Ningshou Palace. and Aunt Bi followed.
Judging from the fact that Aunt Bi didn't stop her from letting Feng Zi prepare hot water just now, it can be seen that going to Ningshou Palace this time is not too dangerous. At least she was able to go back to the shower safely.
Le Ling thought about the Empress Dowager's purpose for finding her all the way, but she thought that apart from Jian Ning's matter, she and the Empress Dowager didn't seem to have anything else to do with each other.
Unconsciously, the sedan car stopped, and it had arrived at Ningshou Palace. The Empress Dowager was not waiting for herself in the front hall, but in the small pavilion in the garden of Ningshou Palace.
Le Ling stepped forward and saluted very respectfully. The rest of the people saluted her.
"The mourning family called you today, and I just want to ask you one thing." As soon as Le Ling sat down, the Empress Dowager had already spoken.
Le Ling immediately straightened her clothes, sat dignifiedly, and said, "The Empress Dowager, please speak." β
In fact, she is the queen, and it stands to reason that she should call the queen mother the queen mother along with the emperor, but since the queen mother did not speak, she will not put a hot face on her cold ass.
"Are you and the emperor husband and wife?" The Empress Dowager looked at Le Ling with a stern expression.
Le Ling was shocked in his heart, and he didn't understand why so much time had passed, and the Empress Dowager suddenly asked about it. Did you hear something, or did something happen? Or who said something in front of the Queen Mother?
Le Ling's mind went blank for a few seconds, and then immediately thought quickly. But before she could think of a perfect statement, the Queen Mother's gaze shot coldly again.
"You don't have to bother making up any lies, in fact, the mourners already know it in their hearts." The Empress Dowager continued, "Although the mourning family doesn't know you, they know the emperor. Although the emperor stayed in Fengyi Palace every day when you first entered the palace, the mourning family can be sure that nothing happened to you in those days. (To be continued) R580
